I think that as Foulshaw Moss has such a good webcam, it would be better to have its own Thread. I hope others don't mind.
The webcam is up and running now.
The male, identified by his 'White YW' leg ring, hatched at Bassenthwaite in 2008. The female, identified by her 'Blue 35' leg ring, hatched at Kielder in 2010. Their three youngsters born in spring 2015 can be identified by their blue leg rings: V2 and V3 appear to be female, and little V4 (the last chick born) a boy.

Blue 35 on the nest this morning. She has a lot of work ahead of her sorting it out, hope YW arrives soon to give her a talon! :-)
Jaydee must be very pleased yet another Kielder Osprey back safe and well.
She tried to do a bit of tidying up :-)
What a pretty Osprey she is too, but aren't they all :-)

Wonderful pics of 35, Mary, thanks so much. I just took a screenshot pretty much identical to yours Starling, so I won't post it!
Great to have ospreys back at Foulshaw Moss, let's hope the male shows up too very soon

Looking forward to watching this nest again this season Choco, hopefully AW will join her soon.
Great to see the female back at foulshaw moss hope the male will return soon. The nest seems to be full of straw I wonder if the volunteers put it in? Look very cosy!
Oh thanks, Great to see her back. Finges crossed for her mate.
Mating at Foulshaw !!
Well spotted Jane V.
Its looks like we have White YW back too. Brilliant! Didn't managed to catch them mating though.
It's not a good picture but it's the best of the bunch. This was the first mating, there was a second a few minutes later.
